PSA StoryboardI have never been to the Grand Canyon. I have always wanted to go because there are some similarities and differences from where I am from.
Some of the similarities that are the same are: the grand canyon is a desert, and the arctic is also considered a desert due to its small amount of precipitation.
The difference are: the drastic differences in temperature, wildlife, vegetation, and
One often things of the Grand canyon as a dry dessert like place. There are many types of vegetation that grows and helps many of the animal species survive.
